Good afternoon!
Nice to see so many on today!
Beautiful day here! I have had so much fun and gotten a little spoiled getting to hike three times in the past five days, lol. My dad loves to hike so he really enjoyed our Saturday and Sunday hikes. He and I have this plan to hike a section of the Appalachian Trail one of these days. The dilemma is that he doesn't have a good place to train, living in Florida. They have paths on boardwalks in swampy areas, no hills or mountains. Whereas I can go out hiking in our rocky nearby mountains. I'm surprisingly not very sore even after the strenuous climb yesterday, aside from my left hip/thigh area. Guess my weekly hikes have helped me getting into shape a bit.
My parents had the three younger kids spend the night with them at the hotel last night, then came by this morning to eat breakfast, drop them off, and pick up Mallory. She is flying back with them for almost 3 weeks and thrilled.
Some of you may remember how sick our elderly dog, Ellie, was a few months back? Well, we have her on SAMe and milk thistle for liver health (her liver is filled with tumors) and she has seemed quite a bit perkier. Surprisingly, yesterday, for the first time since that ordeal, she got on the couch! She certainly shocked me!
She's back up there today
I guess I'm mostly another "same ol' " gal.
I still like hearing about y'all's days (and pets and cooking and gardening). This afternoon, I don't have lots planned, but will fold some laundry, sweep the floors, and pick up just a bit. Earl has class so we'll have an easy supper.
Have a great day!
